T.G.I.F.C.J.S. ~ Thank God it’s French Colombard Jalapeno Shooters

Over near Blanco Texas, harvest is long over. The hill country fields are sunburnt and ready for cool. Today it reached almost 90F ….It is November!So a quick run over to Dry Comal Creek Winery for a French Colombard & Jalapeno Shooter ( I know, the bottle says Sauvignon Blanc, that was wine #2, waiting for us to cool down). Hot and cold at the same time. Worth a try. Wine~Texas style. It isn’t Tuscany, but it is a short break.

The big room at the winery had the fan on, the Big Ass Fan. Real cool.

Out to the open air criadera where the sherry like wine is developing.Unfortunately the Long horn steer didn’t make it. This is tough country.
